1. [-/12 Points] DETAILS DEVORESTAT9 1.2.010. MY NOTES ASK YOUR TEA Flexural strength is a measure of a material's ability to resist failure in bending. The accompanying data are on flexural strength of concrete (in MegaPascal, MPa, where 1 Pa (Pascal) = 1.45 x 10-4 psi): 5.6 7.2 7.3 6.2 8.1 6.8 7.0 7.6 6.8 6.5 7.0 6.3 7.9 9.0 8,2 8.7 7.8 9.7 7.4 7.7 9.7 7.8 7.7 11.6 11.1 11.8 10.9 (a) Construct a stem-and-leaf display of the data. (Enter numbers from smallest to largest separated by spaces. Enter NONE for stems with no values.) Stems Leaves 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 What appears to be a representative strength value? MPa Do the observations appear to be highly concentrated about the representative value or rather spread out? O highly concentrated around the representative value O spread out with a large range (b) Does the display appear to be reasonably symmetric about a representative value, or would you describe its shape in some other way? O reasonably symmetric positive skewness negative skewness O completely random distribution (c) Do there appear to be any outlying strength values? Yes O No (d) What proportion of strength observations in this sample exceed 10 MPa? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
